Hi,
SAP Project Systems supports comprehensive functions for planning, controlling & organizing all activities carried out during the course of a project. It helps you manage your project structures, dates, costs, and resources throughout the entire project lifecycle. Project Systems is management approach which enables users to compare and analyze various projects effectively with a clear and comprehensive integrated methodology in order to ensure an expeditious management decision making.
Project u2013 activities executed by different departments for a common objective/purpose and in which the total budget satisfies a standard amount for each objective/purpose.
At the highest level of SAP PS, projects are defined and then structured into an organizational form that maps to the specific project.
1. Work Breakdown Structure : The project is first broken down into work breakdown structures (WBS) which map to specific project deliverables.
2. Networks : Each WBS can then be broken down into networks of activities. A network can be thought of as a list of tasks organized into a process flow with specific timing.
3. Activities:Activities are the key tasks to be completed. These activities map to internal activities, external activities, cost activities and materials components.
4. Work Centers:Internal activities are assigned to work centers (resources) to be completed.

Dear
1) Each project you can consider as a plant ( where u can valuate the stock at plant level),
2) and difeerent storage locations under plants depends on your material types like ROH,HALB,ERSA,FERT...ect
3)purchase organisations like if have a contracts create one referance pur.org and if require create one more pur.org at local purchases
4)PS consultant has to create each project as WBS element ,under WBS element networks, under networs activities
5) PS-MM integration
When ever Project people requires material as per their planning, they required to accocate the material to particulat activity say if they want cement they need to allocate cement to particulat activity ,
system intern will raise PR at activity level and reservation at newwork level ( item categoty should be L in PS)
base on the PR , purchasing people can create RFQ or PO ,GR,IR Like MM standard Procedure (PR account assignment will be Q orP)
based on the resevation GI will be done (m.type 281 Q)

SAP Enterprise Structure for Plant Maintenance Module

hi,
please explain me SAP Enterprise Structure for Plant maintenance (PM) module.

Hi,
As SAP PM enterprise structure comprises of Company, Maintenance Planning plant & Maintenance Plant. Company will be defined in Financial Accounting. Production plant will be the maintenance plant. Seperate plant would be created as Maintenance Planning Plant. All the plants (Maintenance Planning plant & Maintenance Plant) should be assigned to the company. All the maintenance plants should be assigned to Maintenance Planning Plant. For all the Maintenance Plants, technical objects would be created.
Company --> Maintenance Planning Plant --> Maintenance Plant.
Relation between Maintenance Planning Plant & Maintenance Plant will be 1:1 or 1:n or n:1.

Enterprise Structure for SAP 6.0 for Holding Subsidiary Consolidation

Dear All,
Please guide me on how the enterprise structure should be made for the following holding and subsidiary consolidation.
Company A (Business Group)
Company B (100% subsidiary of Company A)
Company C (74% subsidiary of Company A)
Company D (100% subsidiary of Company B)
Company E (51% subsidiary of Company B)
Company F ( 100% subsidiary of Company C)
Company G (50:50 JV Between Company F and some other company outside the group)
Company H (50:50 JV Between Company D and some other company outside the group)
All the above companies are separate legal entities and need separate financial statements for external reporting.Consolidated Financial sattements needs to be drawn not only for the group but also for each holding compony and JV as per the requirements of accounting standards.

You need to define each legal entity as a Compnay code.
You need to create all these as Companies also.
The detailed share holding pattern is important only at the time of consolidation and at the time of consolidating investments.

Enterprise Structure for a diversified Business

Hi all,
1. There is a client who is into diversified businessess.
They are into Manufacturing,Hotel, Industrial services, IT etc
In each of the above mentioned businesses there are 3 legal entities respectively. Like Manufacturing business has 3 legal entities and like wise the others also.
But all these businesses comes into a single group.
From the Organisational elements point of view, how should we structure the enterprise structure keeping the Consolidation in picture.
The client wants the Balance sheet at respective industry(Manuf, Hotel, IT, Industrial services) and also at the group level.
Please share your experiences in designing a fruitful org sturcutre.
2. One legal entity has two branches one in India and the other is in Australia. How to treat these two branches as. As far as i am concerned as two different countries with different legal issues, there should be two company codes. Please correct me if I am wrong. Is there a wayout to create only one company code and treat these two branches as Profit centers ettc.
Please throw some light on to these.
Thanks & Regards,
Goodluck

Hello Ajay,
Thanks for your reply.
1. Its perfect that we have to create Company codes for all the legal entities, but if Clients want to consolidate the Business at Manufacturing, Trading etc level and also at complete Group level is it possible.
What I thought of is, to create these verticals as Business area, and map the respective company codes into the respective BA so that consolidation will happen at BA level and also if we consolidate all the BA we can see financial statements at Group level. Advise.
2. I didnt work on this scenario previously, but tell if we create Profit center for the Plant at abroad(if its plant or sales office), the currency for this will be different from Controling area and company code currency. Will this have any issue.
Let me know how to deal with it.
Thanks & Regards,

Proper security structure for Single Sign on Server

We are all used to how we design security structure for vCenter Server if you have had an existing VMware environment prior to 5.1. Who should have administrative privileges in vCenter Server, what roles, permissions, and so on should be assigned to what users and groups - these questions have already been addressed in our current configuration.
Now Single Sign on introduces a significant new point of consideration for determining issues of access and authentication.
I'd like to get some ideas on how this should be handled. For example, should previous VMware administrators by definition become Single Sign on Administrators? Should the administrators of the Active Directory domain now start to get involved with the Single Sign on Server?
For example, Single Sign on now forces VMware administrators to configure things like:
-Password Complexity Policy for SSO
-Password Expiration for SSO
-Lockout Policy
We already probably have these things tightly controlled in AD and locked down with group policy, but you can't apply group policy directly to an SSO server and make it receive a GPO from Active Directory. (You can make the Windows OS that SSO is running on have a GPO applied, but it won't configure SSO itself, just the OS).
VMware admins are looking at a new set of questions relating to authentication and authorization. Someone has to have written something or will be writing something to help us get the big picture of what is changing with SSO if anything and how we need to look at SSO from a security design and best practices.
Should we just make existing vCenter Server admins SSO admins or do we need to take a step back and reconsider?

Hello,
Actually, yes. SSO is fairly robust in 5.5. It has a few limitations around email of expired passwords, but that is mainly because some people do not use them. I use SSO to provide the usernames and passwords for all my VMware vCenter and related product service accounts. I.e. an account for vdp, Horizon, vCops, Log Insight, etc. This is more about keeping systems segregated once more with no real need for AD for services. But AD via SSO is used by users.
Read the documentation, and determine how SSO fits into your current password policy and take a long hard look at your virtualization management environment. Is there a 1 service account per service talking directly to vCenter? If not, SSO can help you implement that. The key is to match its functionality to your security policy.

Enterprise Structure-Company Code/Customer Master

Hey Friends,
I have a question here. Consider that there is a production system ABC. Within ABC When I go to the company code transaction within the Financial accounting, I see a list of lot of company codes existing. Also I saw that not all the company codes have their related data, by this I mean that I saw that certain company codes have no data like no vendors,no customers existing for that company code. I just want to figure out whats the real Enterprise structure within the system ABC.
,Not only based on SPRO, but to investigate actual data in some of the data tables...to get a 'real' enterprise structure. since from actual data in tables, we can tell if we're truly selling to what countries etc.
Can you tell me how do I analyze this. Do I check each of the company codes and check if we have any reevant dat for the company code. Also do I see what customer master exists under the particular company code in order to determine which countries we are selling to?
Please can you answer in detail and explain me?
Appreciate it. Thanks.

Use tcode SE16.
provide Table Name KNB1 - Customer Master (Company Code) and press enter.
In Data Browser: Table KNB1: Selection Screen, put Maximum No. of Hits as blank and execute (F8 from keyboard).
There you will be list of Customer Master with respective company code.
Hope this can assist you.
All the best and take care.
Thanks & Regards

Using Enterprise service for POS integration to POSDM

Hi
I have few question on using Enterprise Service for POS Inbound .
1. Is it possibe to get this XML schema for Enterprise Service
2. Lets say we have to use a third party POS to integarte POSDM via PI. But then if we don't want to do any transformation in SAP PI, then can we use the following option:
SAP POS sends the data in the ES XML format
SAP PI just transports this to POSDM
I do see some drawbacks of POS sending the data in the ES service format. As this means, if any change needs to be done based on any new requirements, we need to change the source code. However the above option should still be technically possible?
Any reference if the above approach had been used in any projects. We have always used the following flow:
POS--> PI---> POSDM . PI to POSDM is through the RFC /POSDW/CREATE_TRANSACTIONS_EXT.
Regards,
Fazila

Hi Fazila,
The ES bundle "PointOfSaleTransactionERPBulkCreateRequest_In" can be used to transfer POS transactions to POS Data Management directly.
In order to access the above-mentioned ES, please use the Integration Builder in your PI system in transaction SXMB_IFR and follow the link to the Integration Repository.
This structure can be enhanced to capture additional information.
Award point if useful.

Ramki
